[Verse 1]
It’s a life long project of a life on the lash
I’ve forgotten how to care but I’ll remember for cash
It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to
Light the fuse, sing the blues, I can die if I want to
Tonight we’re gonna bring tomorrow’s happiness
Gonna live like it’s the end
I love you to death, but I must suggest

Explanation of Verse1
The first verse sets the scene of someone living a hedonistic lifestyle, indulging in parties and not caring about the consequences, but also recognizing the need to remember certain things for the sake of financial gain. The file” It’s my party and I will cry if I want to” is a source to the Lesley Gore song” It’s My Party,” pointing a sense of tone- grant and casualness for societal morals. The verse ends with a protestation of living in the moment, indeed if it means risking one’s life.

[Chorus]
You’d better run, run, run, boy
Faster than the past
Through the looking glass
If you want the night to last
You’d better run, run, run, boy
Faster than the past
Through the looking glass
If you want the night to last

Explanation of Chorus
The chorus advises someone to run faster than their past if they want to prolong the night’s enjoyment. It suggests escaping from the past and embracing the present to make the most of the fleeting moment.

[Verse 2]
He’s a long-time blagger, wraps his hand in a band
Still knows the streets of Camden likе the back of his hand
He’s an old-time lovеr and a marathon man
And with the strength of a thousand men
He’s a nightmare hangover, he’s a one night stand
He can “eat mor chikin” any man in the land
Well, I’ve given up caring for happiness
When this heart gives out, is when I’ll rest

Explanation of Verse 2
The second verse introduces a character who is familiar with the streets of Camden, a neighborhood in London known for its alternative culture.  The mention of “eat mor chikin” is likely a playful reference to a popular advertising campaign by the fast-food chain Chick-fil-A.

[Bridge]
‘Cause tonight, we’re gonna spend
All tomorrow’s happiness
If we don’t break before we bend
And tonight your soul is sighing
“It’ll turn out nice again
It’s only money in the end”

[Chorus]
Run, run, run, boy
Faster than the past
Through the looking glass
If you want the night to last
You’d better run, run, run, boy
Faster than the past
Through the looking glass
If you want the night to last

Through the looking glass
If you want the night to last
You’d better run
